So, I am a fan of all
kind of music...
Especially when it's
really really goodI mean...
Really Good...
Fucking Good...
Retarded Good
Like...
You Win Girl Good
I love seeing
Pop music take the turn..
It’s needed to take for so long......
Like there is
NO room..
For the shit they’ve tried to stick down our throat in the past.
There’s barely any music industry left.
There’s no more throw away money in this biz.
Every penny is accounted for..
And if you suck your pennies will be thrown at someone else’s chance.
Every great once in a while.
There’s a chosen one that comes outta no where and is
found and heard.
This chosen is Leona Lewis.
I know this one of many blogs and entries in the google search of “Leona Lewis”.
But let it be known my opinion of this woman.
She will forever be around.
There are few characters that come out these days and become staples.
Like the Madonna’s, the Mariah’s and the Whitney’s of this world.
She will be/is one of them.
Honestly, I don’t mean to be mean…
But she has taken that crown Mariah held for so long for sure.
Actually, Mariah prolly shipped it to her after seeing her own latest performances. Mariah, YOU ARE MARIAH… what the
fuck are you doing?
I love to touch my body every once in a while…
But you missed the boat by not steering a ship like Leona Lewis’s Spirit.
Get back to your roots girl.
I have some story to share with you as well about Miss Lewis.
Leona is gifted from God…
That is no accident, that instrument.
Like I said earlier...
Labels aren’t giving out the pennies..
Like they used to...
But I do know that Simon Cowell not only gave her a RIDICK amount of cash
To sign her but also bought her a BIG ASS HOUSE here in the states as a bonus.
Not only that…
Track two off her debut album, ”I Will Be” is a song I have known for a while…
Even before Leona… why, do you ask?
Cause there’s a set of certain producers that wrote this song..
And brings me to tears. Dr. Luke and Max Martin.
Katy wrote both Hot N Cold & her first single, I Kissed A Girl...
With these men of greatness.
Little known fact though…
This song… was written with Avril Lavigne as well. Wow!!!
Yep, from the outside looking in..
I know that everyone was fighting for Avril to put this on her record.
But for reasons I will not disclose, Avril, did not.
Lucky for this lady, Leona, recognized the greatness and recorded it.
I remember Luke playing this song for me months ago..
And I was at the point of tears knowing.
I heard a song that would be the hugest thing ever…
I mean, people, be prepared to hear this song at every wedding for a long time.
Bleeding Love is
also a huge song as we have been hearing…
Did you know that Ryan Tedder of One Republic is responsible for this being written? Don’t know if there were any other culprits involved…
You go Ryan, you get that fucking house.
He is also a classic example of sticking with it (your dreams).
I was on Columbia with One Republic too...
When they decided to can both of our records.
Oops. Mistake one… and mistake two (knock on wood) , Columbia.
It’s okay we forgive you...
You have obviously forgotten how to recognize greatness.
I also believe in Destiny though… and all things happen for a reason…
Last example. Alanis Morissette,
”Jagged Little Pill”
denied at every record label door.
She moved back to Canada…
And was losing hope until someone decided to take a chance on her.
30 million records later.
Those guys that said it sounded to “weird,”
Sucks for you bros.
Whatever. I know I’m rambling...
And I know Lily Allen made a blog post on Leona Lewis
i.e. the second coming months ago…
But someone gotta hype this girl across the pond.
I know it’s translating and......
I am anxious to hear what happens in numbers next week for her.
Best New Artist of 2008…
I know in voting terms you can’t vote for yourself… so here’s mine, Leona!
